Guidance for Automated Setup for Amazon Elastic VMware Service
Overview
This guidance demonstrates how to accelerate cloud adoption for VMware workloads by automating the deployment of Amazon EVS environments. Infrastructure and VMware administrators can leverage automated provisioning of essential AWS services, including VPCs, Route 53, and Transit Gateway, eliminating complex manual configurations. By implementing AWS best practices through infrastructure as code, organizations can quickly establish production-ready VMware environments in the cloud while reducing deployment time, minimizing configuration errors, and streamlining their migration journey.
Benefits
Deploy production-ready VMware Cloud Foundation environments using automated CloudFormation templates. Eliminate weeks of manual configuration while maintaining full control over your VMware architecture and operational processes.
Extend your on-premises data center to AWS without IP address changes using AWS Direct Connect or Site-to-Site VPN and AWS Transit Gateway. Preserve existing network configurations and operational workflows while gaining cloud scalability and resilience.
Leverage Infrastructure as Code to automate complex networking and VMware stack provisioning. Free your IT teams from repetitive configuration tasks to focus on strategic business initiatives and innovation.
